Font Chgs in middle of rpt

[J_Reinosa_(Guest)]

I have a report that is completely in Times New Roman, however when two of our many users printout the report, one of the memo fields, the same one for both users, which lies in the middle of the report changes its font to one of the script fonts and the rest of the report remains Times New Roman. Everyone else prints out the report without a problem.____Why is there a sudden change in font in the middle of the report and back to its original font for a small number of users?

What version of R&R? Is this runtime or the report designer?____Kathleen__R&R Support

It is version 9.0

As Raj mentioned it is in version 9.0 and it is during runtime.

Does the memo field contain anything that might be interpreted as a font code?__Is there anything in common in the environment for these 2 users that might be different from other users?____Kathleen__R&R Support

We noticed recently that the users are now receiving a program error. Is there a file where R&R program errors are stored? Unfortunatly the error on the screen is not very descriptive. ____Where can I find a listing of required dlls for runtime? We think that one of the dlls has been corrupted or is missing and that is the reason for the error.____Thank you

Here is file information from the R&R help file:____The following lists required and optional files to be distributed in order to enable users to run reports with the Viewer executable. You can specify locations for some of these files either with command switches or with the Viewer control fields.__Note that Report Designer saves the location of tables, indexes, image files, and text memo files with the report. The Viewer will automatically find these files if they are in the saved locations. If they are not in the saved locations, the Viewer will look for them in the default directories specified on the Viewer command line or in the RRW.INI file, if it is available. If the report files are not in either of these locations, use the parameters in the Viewer control file to specify file locations. ____If you make RRW.INI available to users, it should be placed in the user_s Windows directory. The UDF library file, RR.UDF, and the required DLL files (except as noted) should be in the same directory as the Viewer executable, RRWRUN.EXE. ____Note also that in order to export reports to Excel Chart or PivotTable, your users must have Excel 5.0 (or later) installed on their systems.______File/Description/Location__RRWRUN.EXE__The Viewer executable program.

It generally requires some additional troubleshooting to determine what R&R does not like about running a particular report on a particular machine environment.____Kathleen__R&R Support

The message that appeared in the error box was, ____"rrw.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program.____An error log is being created."____Do you know where the error log is located?____

[kfleming]

It is just a generic windows application log that unfortunately provides no clues to the real root cause.____Kathleen__R&R Support

I found what is causing the problem. It is not recognizing the hypertext labels correctly.____For emphasis in the reports, users enter <U> for underline, <B> for bold, <I> for italics and <D> for default in the memo field that is stored in a FoxPro database. When she prints, instead of the report applying the change to emphasize the font on the report, it is confused and completely replaces the text with another font applying the emphasis to it and continues to use the new font until the end of the text in the memo field.____I don^t know how to fix it yet. Have you encountered this before?
